Garden Shed Organization

by Maxwell Ryan, Apartment Therapy

Gardening is something very near and dear to our heart. However, nothing's more frustrating than looking for your trusty trowel and coming up empty-handed. Whether you store your garden tools in a shed or the corner of your garage, here are a few ideas to help you get them arranged and organized just in time for planting season.

Materials & Tools

Shelves

Large S-hook or bracket for hose

Small hook for watering can

Thin nails to hold tools

Small bucket for miscellaneous tools (or tools with no hole in the handle)

Instructions

A shelving unit, like these upcycled pallet shelves, is the perfect base for your organization.

Simple hooks allow our garden tools to hang freely and in sight. In the case of our watering can, the water ring perpetually on our garage floor is now long gone.

A few thing nails hold our smaller shovels in place and allow for easy taking and replacing, even while wearing garden gloves.

A wall-mounted thermometer helps us monitor seasonal shifts, so we can know what to plant when, and when to bid sad farewell to our tomato plants.

A small white bucket holds the rest of our odds and ends.
